Equi-librium

The Equi-librium team made it safely to Denver for the PATH International conference! Today, our Program Director and instructors attended a pre-conference research day at the Temple Grandin Equine Center at Colorado State University. Meanwhile, our Office Administrator attended a workshop on mental health services at therapeutic horsemanship centers.

Wishing a wonderful and educational weekend to Karin, Donna, Dawn, Jenn, and Sara! We are excited for the resources and ideas they’ll bring home to our participants!

Our horses aren’t the only ones who enjoy frolicking in the field!

Please note that our administrative office will be CLOSED on Thursday, November 6th. Lessons will still take place as scheduled.

We are grateful for the opportunity to invest in professional development by sending *eight* of our dedicated staff members to educational conferences this week. Five instructors and administrative team members are traveling to Denver for the PATH International Conference, a long weekend of continuing education and resources for professionals in the equine-assisted services field. Three members of our leadership team staying back in Pennsylvania will be attending the Lehigh Valley Nonprofit Impact Conference hosted by the Volunteer Center of the Lehigh Valley.

These endeavors are possible thanks in great part to a generous donation earmarked earlier this year for professional development.

Lesson cancellations can be left on our voicemail and will be passed along to the correct instructor. Please note that substitute instructors have been assigned for many lessons this week, so calling our main line is the best way to ensure your message gets to the right person.

Thank you so much for your patience as response times to calls and emails may be slower through the end of this week!

No Stirrup November? Nailing it!

Many of our instructors are using this month to challenge their participants to drop their stirrups; riding without stirrups can help improve balance and stability; strengthen core and leg muscles; develop an independent seat; and build confidence! Some of today’s independent riders progressed from walking without stirrups to riding in two-point and even trotting.
